Other more "cost efficient" options...

ALDO MARX PUMP for $70

LOVE THIS VIDEO -- hottest female rappers in the game right now :o)

AND Just BECAUSE its FRIDAY....

BREAKING NEWS about GUCCI not the Mane ...

Variety has reported that Ridley Scott(famous director) is in talks with ANGELINA JOLIE & LEONARDO DICAPRIO (no explanation needed!) -- to star in the movie about GUCCI (NOT the rapper!) GASP! It's going to be a film about the Gucci fashion dynasty during the 70s and 80s! Filming is set to start in 2010! This may have single-handedly made my WEEK!

Sidebar:
ANGELINA would be playing the role of Patrizia Reggiani, who was sentenced to 29 years for plotting the murder of her husband -- Maurizio Gucci (possibly Leo DiCaprio) who was shot and killed in Milan in 1995! Yes honey -- DRAMA! Can't wait for the movie!!!

Knockin' Boots?!

Reader, Alexis (everyone say heyyyyy Alexis!) -- recently asked me if I knew what boots Angela Simmons was wearing when spotted in Los Angeles with her boo earlier this week... I absolutely LOVE these boots! Not only is she channeling one of the hot trends of the season "rocker-chic" -- they also look super comfy! They appear to be the leather version of the VERA WANG TRUDY BOOT....

The Comeback...

"If you had had a perfect existence up until
now, where everything had gone exactly right,
you might not have a strong determination
and desire to change your life. It's all of the
apparently "negative" things that happen to us
which give us a huge desire to change things.
That huge desire that arises within you is like a
magnetic fire, and it is very powerful.

Be grateful for everything that caused that fire
to ignite a massiver desire within you, because
that fire of desire will give you strength and
determination, and you will change your life."

~ The Secret ~

...and with that said...I AM BACK -- StylisticallySpeaking is going to be bigger and better than ever -- I've missed you! WHAT UP?!!!

Guess Who's Bizzzz-ack?!

Me! Yayayayayayayay!!! Haha :o) I've been gone for a minute -- but I'm back with the JUMPOFF!!! Owww! Sorry I'm super-excited -- yes I took a much needed hiatus from the "blog world", but now I'm back and better than ever -- and I have a little helper that I'd like to introduce you too!!!

Her name is RENEE HAMILTON and she loves fashion like me!!! Double yay!!! While she isn't good to have around if you are on a diet (she always has snacks in her bag--and NOT the healthy kind) -- she's cute as a button!

Everyone says "Hiiiiiii Renee" ... she's a senior fashion design major @ Centenary College in NJ... her dream career is to become a fashion designer BUT she also has major LOVE for modeling, fashion photography and STYLING (and NO I didn't make her say that!) She's a crazed COACH fanatic! Her favorite designers are Betsey Johnson, Jean Paul Gaultier, Carolina Herrera, Gucci, Karl Lagerfeld, Versace, Dolce & Gabanna, YSL, Oscar de la Renta, Christian Dior --- AND in her words "...Giuseppes' are MEANN, and Louboutins are BADD!!" (I didn't make her say that either!!!) So if you see Renee running around the city or strutting on campus, make sure you do the "stanky leg" for her -- she loves that!

The only reason I watched the Grammy's...

I actually was going to wear these EXACT same outfits Friday & Saturday night (minus the belly of course)...but I changed my mind last minute....

And of course I love the BOREDOM in this photo...
